1. Christopher Walken

NOTHING will impress a potential mate more than when Christopher Walken greets her as she enters your apartment. Walken will give you instant street-cred and an air of worldly refinement. His dancing will provide hours of entertainment, and his experiences as a teenage lion tamer make for riveting cocktail chat. Just don't get him started on his cats, Bowtie and Flapjack. At the very least, his very presence will provide a talking point, should conversation with your date slow to a crawl. "Why is Christopher Walken here?" she might ask. "I don't know," you'll respond. His company simply cannot be overvalued, and — rumor has it — he can be paid in sandwiches.
